Blindfolded David Rush, from Idaho in the US, identified 11 ice cream flavours in 60 seconds

He made the Guinness World Record attempt in May 2019

Boise, Idaho: A US man recently entered the Guinness World Records after identifying 11 ice cream flavours while he was blindfolded.

David Rush was filmed taste-testing several ice cream flavours for one minute and attempting to guess them. Though Rush managed to correctly identify 12 flavours, he managed to say only half the name of the 12th flavour, java chip, before the timer ran out.

Rush broke the world record in Boise, Idaho, USA, on 18 May 2019.

Guinness World Records said that Rush tied the previous record of 11 which was set by Mohammed Ahmad Darwish at by Fiesta Kuwait at the Marina Mall, Salmiya in Kuwait in March 2013.

According to the website of Guinness World Records, Rush had planned to attempt the record in a face-off with his wife who also loves ice creams.

Rush is said to have broken more than 100 Guinness World Records including snapping most pencils in one minute, stacking most bars of wet soap in one minute and stuffing most blueberries in his mouth.

In July, a 17-tonne truck was lifted in the air, attached to a crane by using only an adhesive to set a world record. DELO, a German manufacturer of industrial adhesives entered the world record of the heaviest weight lifted with glue (non-commercially available) at 17.2 tonnes.

The entire weight of the truck was suspended in the air for one hour on an aluminium cylinder with a radius of just 3.5 centimetres using just 3 grams of the super-strong glue.
